Interacting with First Responders: For People with Disabilities and their Loved Ones Webinar
Mar 13, 2024
The Colorado IMPACT Initiative will be holding over 150 presentations for people with disabilities and/or mental health disorders and their loved ones to give them tools to empower them, communicate with 1st responders, ask for accommodations, advocate for themselves, and ultimately feel and be safe with first responders.
Pulse Line Collaborative Training has already trained over 1400 officers throughout Colorado on our Individuals with Disabilities curriculum, which teaches how to recognize characteristics and traits of various disabilities and mental health disorders, provides communication tools and resources to help officers avoid escalation of situations, and teaches them de-escalation techniques. Over 300 more training classes for first responders will be delivered throughout Colorado in the next 18 months with a goal of providing ALL first responders with these valuable tools.
